Psychrometrics

Psychrometrics or psychrometry are terms used to describe the field of engineering concerned with the determination of physical and thermodynamic properties of gas-vapor mixtures.

The principles of psychrometry apply to any physical system consisting of gas-vapor mixtures. The most common system of interest, however, are mixtures of water vapor and air because of its application in heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning and meteorology.
